It's not uncommon for an Outgress alert to get to you faster than an Ingress push notification.

How fast can alerts based on email actually be? It turns out they can be really, really fast when you have mail servers that deliver emails directly to the application (they do not go to a mailbox that requires checking).

Activity heat maps.

Visualize where activity is.

Advanced intel tools.

Outgress can generate an optimal fielding plan for any group of portals. It can show you portals on the map that you have never sent a damage report from (handy when you are hunting for unique portals).

Portal info.

View attack history for a portal. Leave notes about a portal (for yourself or for your faction). Stake claims on portals to help your faction get organized in your local area of play. Get driving (or walking) directions to any portal with the click of a button.

Agent trends.

Visualize where a specific agent tends to play. See who they play with. Determine the portals they attack the most. See the portals they have potentially held for a long period of time (where they are the last known attacker). Visualize links they have recently broken (are they out clearing lanes?).
